Poor Network Performance (Realtek)

hardware-compat
My partner recently installed bazzite-deck-nvidia (apologies for the limited info as I can't necessarily steal the terminal and grab everything). He is experiencing poor networking performance (capped to 100mbps) on a Realtek 8125 chip (per
lspci | grep ethernet
lspci | grep ethernet
).

I've seen guides that indicate that modern kernels have severe problems with this chipset.

Does anyone have a writeup anywhere for a fix?

One option I could consider is using the build system to build a custom ISO image that uses kernel 6.12 (the problem appeared to start occurring in 6.13?)

I finally took the plunge from Windows to Bazzite and am mostly happy, but one thing is driving me crazy. As I’m completely new to Linux/bazzite I hope I can get some help or at least clarification...
